The gypsy girl.
I think this could be a great story. And your logline isn't bad either.Although the pros here could probably make it better. Best, Rutger
This story has so much potential. While I agree with one comment that the German girl's parents should be Nazi supporters or push it even further, have her father be SS. Always remember to throw every obstacle at your characters, make life very hard for them. However, I find the other comments really confusing, especially the one suggesting you move location, period and scenario... That's not your story. It would be wise for commenters to remember that you aren't trying to get the log liners to change their idea completely or tell them to definitely do x or definitely do y, the goal is to make the idea they have stronger.
You have a great idea here and I think you should explore it whilst remembering to make the conflict incredibly high and make it increasingly difficult for the GG to keep her friend a secret.
I like your take on the story Elizabeth. My rough plan had a rather weak begining, but the Hungarian incidents would be a fantastic element, which i'd like to thank you for. I will still persist with the Holocaust element, but i'm heading towards pre-WW2, which allows a little bit more freedom of movement, and also allows those who are unaware that the persacution began a lot sooner then Holywood would have you believe.
I have also played around with having the location in another region, as well as the setting being in a hotel.
Regarding the numbers helping her, i have 1 man doing just this, but he is not doing it for the right reasons.
As it stands, this project will remain in the planning stages for several more months whilst i finish my first project.
